I first read this collection while in college in the early 90's. I'm also an Asian-American girl from Hawaii so I could relate to many of her themes, but you do not need to be Asian or from Hawaii to appreciate her lovely poetry. As she likes to describe herself, she is "a poet who happens to be Asian American." My favorites in this collection are "The White Porch", "Chinatown" (I think that's the name...I don't have the book in front of me right now..), "Picture Bride" and "The Spaces We Leave Empty".
